Roasted bell peppers are one of those ingredients that transform completely in the oven — sweet, silky, and deeply savory in a way that raw peppers simply can't match. The charring and steaming technique here is the real secret, loosening the skins so they slip off effortlessly and leaving behind tender, jewel-colored strips packed with concentrated flavor. A bright dressing of apple cider vinegar, honey, and good olive oil ties everything together, while capers add a briny punch that keeps each bite interesting. Fresh parsley and torn basil lift the whole dish with a herby finish that feels genuinely restaurant-worthy. Every single ingredient here is naturally free of wheat, so there's no need to scrutinize labels or swap anything out — it just works as written. Serve it at room temperature as a starter, pile it onto grilled protein, or let it anchor a simple spread alongside other vegetables. It's the kind of salad that looks impressive but asks almost nothing of you.

Preheat the oven to 450°F (230°C). Arrange the bell pepper halves cut-side down on a baking sheet and brush with 1 tbsp of the olive oil.
Roast for 20–25 minutes, until the skins are deeply charred and blistered in spots and the flesh is completely tender when pressed.
